I really struggled in my coding course until Lawrence explained concepts and answered questions that made things clearer for me.

I recently had the pleasure of working with Lawrence L. on a project with a very tight deadline. I had limited experience with some of the technologies I would be working on and felt I needed some guidance and support, Lawrence truly delivered in every aspect. His expertise in Python, Flask, and SQLite proved invaluable, and he always provided gentle encouragement while providing teaching points and guidance throughout the project. What stood out about Lawrence was his teaching style. He used examples to help me grasp concepts more effectively and consistently offered deeper insight into the reasons behind certain techniques, rather than just focusing on how to execute them. His endless patience and ability to keep us on task were critical to our success. Whenever we encountered challenges in the code, Lawrence empowered me to find a solution rather than simply relying on his own knowledge. This approach allowed me to grow in the scope of the project, as well as in confidence, thanks to his tutelage and vast expertise. In summary, my experience with Lawrence exceeded my expectations. His exceptional support, encouragement, and knowledge made a significant impact on the success of my project, and I emerged wiser and more confident because of our time together. I highly recommend Lawrence to anyone seeking guidance in the fields of Python, Flask, and SQLite.

Luo was really great and resolved the issues i was facing in react app very quickly and efficiently. He also examined the code and explained the concepts in a very crisp manner. He is knowledgable and pro efficient in the js concepts. The session with luo helped me move ahead in my projects.
- Vivek R. from Chandler, AZ
Lawrence is the best tutor ever. He is very focused and knowledgeable. He is also a great listener and structures lessons to his students needs. I really appreciate him and his efforts because I have learned so much from him in a very short time.
- Brian H. from Las Vegas, NV
Lawrence has great explanations and also knows a lot about coding. He knows how to explain certain problems to a level that anyone could understand. If you're looking to get better at coding make sure to get his help. I recommend 100%.
- Hj K. from Bakersfield, CA
I needed Lawrence to review code that I will be learning in a bootcamp, he explained everything really clearly. He is a fantastic tutor and look forward to working with him again.
- Ashley W. from San Francisco, CA
Lawrence put my son, who can be nervous in social situations, at ease from the very first moment. He was able to quickly judge his abilities, and teach to his level, gently guiding while making sure my son had a deep understanding of the program he is working on. My son warns me not to schedule Minecraft playdates that could interfere with his Python lesson -- really pretty much the highest recommendation I can imagine.
- Mark G. from Brooklyn, NY
Lawrence is a great tutor. He is very patient and helpful. Instead of giving you the answer, he guides you in the right direction. The project we worked on covered a lot of information that had me confused and lost, but with Lawrence's guidance I was able to understand what I was doing/ what had to be done in order to get to the desired result.
- Alex T. from Chicago, IL
I've worked with a few different tutors here for javascript and Lawrence stands out as one of the best. I was working on a project for my college design course that required a lot of troubleshooting and workarounds. I'm not that familiar with javascript or data scraping, but Lawrence and I worked together to come up with possible avenues we thought would be successful. We ran into a couple of dead ends and ended up being successful in the end, but I learned about data analysis as well as how to adapt in the process.
- Storey P. from New York, NY
My son Cooper is new to coding. He has been working with Lawrence for a few months and he is really enjoying it.. Cooper finds Lawrence to be an excellent teacher.
- Dori Z. from Sarasota, FL
Lawrence went over concepts like such as unit testing, adding a loading spinner to my page, and file uploads. Took the time to ensure I was understanding the additions and changes to my code.
- Gerard C. from Roann, IN
I have used Lawrence for a few times now and will continue to do so. First, he creates a pretty relaxing environment even when I am stressed out. It is great to see someone as experienced as he is and still remembers what it was like learning coding. He has guided me through python, pandas, and matplotlib so far. I am currently in one of the famous data boot camps and the information and expectations are greater than reality for someone being introduced to programming. As Lawrence guides me through some of the challenges, the way he teaches tends to stick more than other tutors and even teachers. If you are learning programming or been around and need someone great who can help with understanding, you need to pick Lawrence!
- Matthew H. from San Diego, CA
Knowledgeable and easy to work with. Highly recommend using him if you need assistance with JavaScript/ React Native. We had multiple sessions debugging error messages and laying down the project fundamentals.
- Charlie B. from Miami, FL
my daughter found Lawrence to be super smart and patient and articulate, and she enjoyed learning a topic she genuinely is not particularly fond of so I think he was extremely successful.
- Jen P. from New York, NY
Lawrence has been an amazing tutor for my daughter. Not only he is an excellent teacher, he goes out of his way to help her learn! I would strongly recommend him to anyone seeking an instructor!
- Sunil L. from Shrewsbury, MA
I was given a last minute Python programming assignment that kept running into problems. I decided to reach out to Lawrence and he was quick to help. He was able to spot the errors in my code and helped me understand what I was trying to do vs how I was doing it. Great tutor, was very helpful.
- Shanda B. from Lawrenceville, GA
Lawrence really took time to understand how I viewed and approached each issue and left me with a better overall understanding. Great tutor, full of knowledge!
- Christopher K. from Milpitas, CA
Lawrence responded to our request for tutoring in a very thoughtful way that shows he cares about the work he does. We ended up hiring him to develop a product for our company, as introduce us to React Native.
